SPECIFICATIONS
NORRIS Steel Sucker Rods, Drive Rods® and Pony Rods
Norris Steel Sucker Rods, Drive Rods® and Pony Rods are manufactured from micro-alloyed, modified special quality hot rolled carbon or
alloy steel. Sucker rod dimensions and tolerances conform to API Spec 11B, latest edition, and are available in ⅝”(15.88 mm), ¾”(19.05
mm), ⅞”(22.23 mm), 1”(25.40 mm) and 1⅛”(28.58 mm) body diameter and in 25’(7.62 m) lengths. Drive Rods® for Progressing Cavity
Pump application are available in ⅞”(22.23 mm), 1”(25.40 mm), 1⅛”(28.58mm), 1¼”(31.75 mm), and 1½”(38.10 mm) body diameter and
in 25’(7.62 m) lengths.
All rods are straightened and inspected by Eddy Current for surface defects. Both ends are upset by automatic high-speed hot forging.
Rods are full-length normalized to relieve residual stresses, air-quenched and tempered to refine and homogenize grain structure. All rods
are also NOR-Peened® to improve fatigue life. Upset pin blanks are machined and dimensions gauged. Pin threads are cold-formed to
strengthen the thread from fatigue. An inhibitor-lubricant is applied to each pin and thread protector installed. An oil-soluble coating
protects Norris rods from atmospheric corrosion in storage. All rods are bundled to prevent handling damage during transportation to the
well location. Quality control inspections are performed at each step of the manufacturing process.
Rolled Threads vs. Cut Threads
Norris uses cold-formed rolled threads on all of our Sucker Rods, Drive Rods®, and Couplings. The cold-formed rolled thread process,
unlike cut threading or burnishing, neither removes nor wastes metal, but displaces the material, ensuring consistent grain flow. The coldforming process strengthens the tension, shear, yield, and fatigue resistance of the threads.

Maximum Recommended Weight Indicator Pull on a
Sucker Rod or Drive Rod®
The following calculates the maximum rig weight indicator pull on a stuck rod string. The calculations are based on 90% of the
minimum yield strength, for a rod string in “like new” condition. The maximum load should be reached by a straight, steady pull and
not a shock load.
For a tapered string, calculate the total weight in pounds of all rods above the bottom section. Add to this weight the values in the
table below for the rod type and size of the bottom section; This is the maximum load that should be pulled on a rod string. For a one
taper rod string, the table values are the maximum pull.
The maximum pull rates for Drive Rod® is the same as conventional Sucker Rod.
Note: For rod weight, see table on page 18.

NORRIS COUPLINGS
Norris Sucker Rod Couplings, Polished Rod Couplings and Sub-Couplings are engineered and designed to meet the challenges existing in
today’s rod-pumped applications. They are available in API Class T, High Strength or Sprayloy® (API Class SM), and in all Sucker Rod sizes.
Norris Couplings are manufactured from special quality cold-formed steel extrusions or cold drawn seamless mechanical steel tubing.
Sucker Rod Couplings, Polished Rod Couplings and Sub-Couplings are available in Full Size, Slim Hole or Oversize outside diameters with
effective-width Enhanced Contact Face (ECF) designs.
Norris was the first to introduce the ECF designs. ECF’s improved design enhances the friction force by maximizing the area of contact
between the pin shoulder and coupling face; helping maintain the proper preload stress level required in makeup. This “effective” area of
contact also provides greater consistency in the amount of displacement (torque) required to properly preload the pin between multiple
connections in the rod string.
All couplings are furnished with a cold-formed, fully rolled thread to provide additional strength and fatigue resistance. Pioneered and
developed by Norris in 1969, the cold-formed, fully rolled coupling thread is produced by completely cold-forming (reshaping) the steel
fibers so they follow the contour (shape) of the thread. The thread surface that results from fully rolled threads improves its resistance to
corrosion and reduces abrasion within the thread. The work hardened flank provides increased surface tensile, yield and shear strength.
Due to the pressure deformation, a residual compressive stress system builds up at the thread root, which counteracts tensile loading.
When compared to cut or burnished threads, the load capacity and corrosion and fatigue resistance of the rolled thread is significantly
increased.

NORRIS SINKER BARS
Norris Sinker Bars are manufactured from special quality hot rolled carbon manganese steel bars. Sinker bar dimensions and tolerances
conform to API Spec. 11B, latest edition. Sinker Bars have a reduced section on one end for elevator seating and lifting. Pin blanks are
machined and dimensions gauged. Pin threads are rolled cold-formed to strengthen the thread from fatigue. An inhibitor lubricant is
applied to each pin and thread protector installed. An oil soluble coating protects Norris sinker bars from atmospheric corrosion in storage.
Sinker bars are bundled to prevent handling damage during transportation.
Special sizes and materials are available upon request.

Alberta Oil Tool manufactures Norris sinker bars with several combinations of body diameter and pin size. Some of these combinations are
furnished with a Sucker Rod pin and others come with a Polished Rod pin. The table below lists each size of sinker bar produced by AOT

When installing Sinker Bars, it is imperative that the pin type be noted and the proper coupling be selected. Sucker Rod pins and Polished
Rod pins are very different not only in overall size, but also in the shape of the thread profile. Polished Rod threads have a 9˚ taper on the
final threads which, when used in conjunction with a Polished Rod Coupling, provide a mechanical lock between the rod and coupling.
Sucker Rod pins, and likewise Sucker Rod Couplings, do not have this tapered thread. Because of this, a Sucker Rod Coupling cannot be
used with a Polished Rod pin. The tapered threads of the Polished Rod pin will not mate properly with the parallel threads of the Sucker
Rod Coupling. The parallel threads of the Sucker Rod pin will not interfere with the tapered, internal threads of the Polished Rod Coupling.
After the proper coupling has been selected, a sinker bar connection should be made up using the same procedure as any other rod. The
circumferential displacement should be measured using the Norris, “Type 54, 75, 78 & 90” Circumferential Displacement (CD) card (Black
Card). The proper measurement on the card will correspond with the size of pin on the sinker bar.
Again, when installing sinker bars, it is very important to remember:
A Polished Rod Coupling can be used with either a Polished Rod pin or a Sucker Rod pin, however a Sucker Rod Coupling can only
be used with a Sucker Rod pin, not a Polished Rod pin.

Sinker Bar Effect
A Norris recommended sinker bar section is a section of large-diameter sucker rods such as ⅞”(22.23mm) or 1”(25.4mm), or a section
of 1¼”(31.75mm) or 1½”(38.1mm) O.D. bar stock installed in the rod string just above the pump. This section helps keep the rod string
straight and in tension; it reduces downstroke compression bucking of the lower rods; decreases the range of stress on the rod string;
and increases pump plunger over travel with increased fluid production.
Rod string buckling can result in downhole problems such as rod body, pin, and coupling failures, poor pump efficiency, increased rod
stress loads, and higher well costs.
Causes of buckling or improper downstroke motion include: fluid pounding or pump off; gas pounding or interference; high pumping
speeds or rod whip; improper harmonic motion; large bore pumps; heavy or viscous well fluids; pounding down on a pump or tagging
bottom; and increased friction between rods and tubing from deviated holes.
Two methods are being used to provide the sinker bar effect:
 A section of large diameter sucker rods to provide a long, rigid, heavy section installed immediately above the pump.
 A shorter section of larger-diameter bar stock with sucker rod joints installed above the pump to concentrate the sinker bar
effect closer to the pump.
The footage of sinker bars required is calculated as follows:
Sinker Bar Footage =
Plunger Constant x Pump Depth(ft)

NORRIS POLISHED RODS
Norris Polished Rod bar and dimensions conform to API Specification 11B, latest edition, and AISI Steel Products Manual. Norris Polished
Rods are furnished with cold-formed, fully rolled threads to provide additional strength and fatigue resistance. The cold-formed, fully
rolled pin thread is produced by completely cold-forming (reshaping) the steel fibers so they follow the contour (shape) of the thread. The
thread surface that results from fully rolled threads improves its resistance to corrosion and reduces abrasion within the thread.
The work-hardened flank provides increased surface tensile, yield and shear strength. Due to the pressure deformation, a residual
compressive stress system builds up at the thread root, which counteracts tensile loading. When compared to cut or burnished threads,
the load capacity and corrosion and fatigue resistance of the rolled thread is significantly increased.

RECOMMENDED MAKEUP PROCEDURES
For Sucker Rods, Drive Rods® and Pony Rods
The Static CD Method:
1) Verify the size and grade of sucker rods and ancillary equipment
on location. DO NOT assume that equipment in the well matches
the well data sheet. DO NOT assume that the sucker rods or other
downhole equipment delivered to the location match the rod string
design or work order sheet.
10) Draw or scribe a vertical line across the top end of the coupling
OD and the pin shoulder of the sucker rod. Use an appropriate
Circumferential Displacement (CD) Card to measure and draw a
second mark across the pin shoulder in the direction of tightening.
Repeat the procedure at the bottom end of the coupling. Do assure
that you are using the proper CD Card for your application. See the
2) Run the subsurface pump and other necessary downhole
Circumferential Displacement Cards information sheet for details.
equipment into the well. (i.e., sinker bars, on-off tools, shear tools,
etc.) ALWAYS follow the manufacturers recommendations for all
downhole equipment.
3) Pickup the first sucker rod, latch one end into the rod elevator
and carry the other end until the sucker rod is hanging freely in the
derrick. ALWAYS utilize two people when picking up and handling
sucker rods. DO NOT allow the sucker rod to drag on the ground or
over other metal objects.
4) Remove the plastic pin protector by hand, with an appropriate
spanner wrench or an air impact wrench and 6-point socket. DO
NOT use any other method to remove the plastic pin protectors.
5) Clean the threads, pin shoulder and coupling face. ALWAYS
remove all debris during cleaning. (i.e., dirt, scale, old lubricant,
plastic, etc.)
6) Visually inspect the threads, pin shoulder and coupling face for
indications of damage (i.e., pitting, wear, dents, etc.) DO remove
and replace damaged product prior to installation.
7) Remove one coupling from the box and apply a small amount of
sucker rod lubricant to the coupling threads. ASSURE that the
sucker rod lubricant has a grease-like consistency and contains
corrosion inhibitors and antioxidants. DO NOT use pipe dope,
11) Power Tong Calibration and Usage Procedures:

shoulder and coupling face to remove any remaining lubricant film.
DO use a clean rag for application. DO NOT allow lubricant to
remain on the pin shoulder or coupling face.
9) Carefully “stab” the sucker rod onto the pump bushing, pony rod
pin, sinker bar pin or coupling, whichever is looking up. Start the
lead or first threads by hand. With a rod wrench, spin the
connection together until the pin shoulder and the coupling face
touch, which is the hand-tight assembly. DO NOT over-tighten. The
connection is hand-tight when the pin shoulder and the coupling
face touch without extraneous pressure applied.

b. Attain full throttle and maintain constant engine RPM.
c. Engage the power tongs and slowly increase the tong
pressure until the first drawn mark on the coupling rotates
to the second mark on the pin shoulder. The power tongs
should come to a complete stop (i.e., the power tongs
should stall) while engaged. DO NOT hit (bump) the
connection again with the power tongs.
d. Run this connection in the well.
e. Repeat steps 3 through 10 with respect to handling,
stabbing, hand-tightening the assembly and marking the
connection for the next sucker rod.
f. Attain full throttle and maintain constant engine RPM.
g. Engage the power tongs and displace the connection at the
current tong pressure setting. The power tongs should come
to a complete stop (i.e., the power tongs should stall) while
engaged. Do NOT hip (bump) the connection again with the
power tongs.
NOTICE
In addition to using the recommended makeup procedures,
Norris also recommends the following:

It is imperative that the power tongs and related
equipment be maintained in accordance with the
manufacturer’s recommendations.

When using power tongs, it is recommended that the
hydraulic oil system be circulated until a normal operating
temperature is reached and that this temperature be
maintained within a reasonable level though calibration
and installation of the rod string.

With some power tongs, it may be necessary to loosen the
coupling two or three turns to achieve the momentum
necessary to make the connection up to the displacement
required. Norris recommends that this practice be kept to a
minimum.

Use power tongs for all sizes except ⅝”(15.88mm) for
consistent makeup.

Use power tongs for breakout to prevent damage to the
sucker rod / drive rod connection.

When checking CD, the top and bottom mark may not line
up exactly in the same position. This is usually not cause for
concern. As long as both the top and bottom of the
connection are lined up to within the width of the mark on
the CD card, the rod is within the correct makeup
tolerance.

After using the CD method recommended for makeup a
total of five times, change all couplings in the rod string
prior to the next installation.

The makeup torque for all Drive Rod® connections should
be close to the maximum ft-lbs (Nm) torque value that the
Drive Rod® will be operating at. (See Service Torque Values
and page 7).
h. Check the pin shoulder and coupling marks for the correct
displacement. If necessary, adjust the tong pressure, break
and remake the connection.
i. Once the correct displacement is obtained, run this
connection in the well.
j. With correct displacement now established, repeat steps
11e through 11i for a total of five times to audit the
mechanical integrity of the power tongs and related
equipment before proceeding to step 12.
12) Makeup Procedures:
a. Repeat steps 3 through 9 with respect to handling, stabbing
and hand-tightening the connection for next sucker rod.
b. Attain full throttle and maintain constant engine RPM.
c. Engage the power tongs and displace the connection at the
current tong pressure setting. The power tongs should come
to a compete stop (i.e., the power tongs should stall) while
engaged. DO NOT hit (bump) the connection again with the
power tongs.
d. Run this connection in the well.
13) Recalibration Recommendations:
a. Repeat steps 11e through 11i every tenth connection. DO
adjust tong pressure as necessary at this step. This will
account for changes in the temperature of the hydraulic oil
and the resulting change in tong pressure displacement.
b. Repeat steps 11e through 11i when changing sizes. EVERY
change in rod size requires a change in circumferential
displacement and an associated change in the tong pressure
setting. ALWAYS use the current tong pressure setting for
sub-couplings (i.e., changeover couplings crossover
coupling, combination couplings, etc.)
c. Repeat steps 11e through 11i after scheduled or
unscheduled downtime such as lunch breaks, equipment
repairs or other delays. DO adjust tong pressure as
necessary at this step. This will account for changes in the
temperature of the hydraulic oil and the resulting change in
tong pressure displacement.
Along with the above procedures, Norris recommends the
following:


The use of rod wrenches or power tongs for breakout
prevents joint damage from hammers.
On larger diameter rods (1”(25.4mm) or greater), failure to
fully engage, by hand, the connection together until the pin
shoulder and the coupling face touch (hand-tight assembly)
prior to applying power tongs, can result in thread galling.
21
Recommended Makeup Procedures cont.
Effective makeup can be achieved by following the API recommendations in Section 5 of the RP11BR, “API Recommended Practice for
Care and Handling of Sucker Rods.” In general, the circumferential displacement method involves rotating the coupling against the pin
shoulder after hand-tight contact. A prescribed dimension will preload the pin and generate a friction force between the shoulder faces.
Norris furnishes three circumferential displacement (CD) cards for recommended makeup. A displacement card is also available for
Norris Drive Rods®.

Guide Spacing and Material Recommendations
Spacing Recommendations
Excessive side loads occur when there is a deviation in the
well bore or the rod string is in compression. Both
conditions may occur in the same well. Side load and
guide design determine the number of guides per rod
needed to effectively protect rods and tubing. With
information from a directional survey, RG Industries can
project side loads in all areas of a well. Well history on rod
and tubing failure is also considered. To determine proper
spacing of guides for effective paraffin control, the
distance between guides must not exceed the effective
stroke length, below the point in the well where paraffin
begins to form (cloud point).

Material Recommendations
Rod guide and paraffin scraper materials are carefully selected depending on factors such as bottom hole temperatures, fluids
produced and the presence of abrasives. Contact your Norris Representative to discuss your requirements.
Two base polymers, PPA (Polyphthalamide) and PPS (Polyphenylene sulphide), are used. These polymers are reinforced with glass or
carbon fibre to maximize performance in the harsh environment in which they are used. Mineral fillers are sometimes added to
reduce costs and in some instances enhance performance.

NORRIS TUBULAR PRODUCTS
Tubular Fittings
Norris swages and bull plugs are known throughout the industry for their precision and reliability. Manufactured in Canada by Alberta Oil
Tool, Norris fittings are available in a wide range of sizes, grades and thread types. It all begins with superior materials. Norris fittings are
made of forged and machined seamless steel in accordance with API and ANSI specifications. Each item is carefully inspected to ensure
quality fabrication and perfect threads. All of our fittings are beveled for easy starting, and color coded pipe threads make instant
identification of thread type possible. To ensure traceability of Norris fittings and Pup Joints is effortless, each piece is steel stamped for
company, material and mill identification.
Swage Nipples
Norris Swage Nipples are made from new full weight material that is either hot forged or accurately machined on our numerically
controlled lathes, ensuring a perfect thread every time. The threads on Norris hexagon swages 1”(25.4mm) and smaller are never cut.
Our production technique exerts sufficient pressure to completely cold form fully rolled threads. This literally rearranges the metallic
structure to reinforce and smooth both thread root and flanks. Norris swage nipples are available in both thread by thread and beveled
by thread combinations, in weights of standard, extra heavy, double-extra heavy and SCH 160.
In keeping with industry demands, Norris Tubing and Casing Swages 2” (50.8mm) and larger are manufactured from forged and
machined materials. Available in J-55, K-55 and L-80 materials and pin & box. Norris low-temperature Swages are manufactured in
accordance with API and ANSI specifications and from material conforming to ASTM A350-LF2 and ASTM A420 Grade WPL6 to meet the
severe conditions encountered during extreme low temperatures. They are available in extra-heavy and SCH 160 weights, in sizes
⅛”(3.175mm) through 4”(101.6mm).
Bull Plugs
Norris Bull Plugs are manufactured with forged and machined seamless steel in accordance with API and ANSI specifications. The
Norris forged steel Bull Plug is three times stronger in the nose as compared to ordinary drawn nose bull plugs. The Norris method
puts far more strength in the area where it is needed most. AOT’s use of numerically controlled lathes ensure a perfect thread on
every Bull Plug. As a safeguard, all critical thread elements are inspected on a continuous basis. As with Norris Swage Nipples
1”(25.4mm) and smaller, the threads on our Bull Plugs 1”(25.4mm) and smaller are never cut. We completely cold form our threads.,
a technique which literally rearranges the metallic structure to reinforce and smooth both thread root and flanks.
Alberta Oil Tool also manufactures a line of low-temperature/sour-service Bull Plugs. Manufactured to ASTM A350-LF2 and ASTM
A420 Grade WPL6 material to meet the severe conditions encountered at extreme temperatures.
In keeping with industry demands, Norris bull plugs are available in various sizes, grades of materials wall thickness’ and thread
types. Norris bull plugs are manufactured from line pipe, tubing and casing.

Sleeve Couplings
Norris Sleeve-type Couplings provide a quick, flexible joint for plain-end pipe. A resilient
gasket, made of oil and gas resilient Buna N, compresses around the pipe ends as bolts are
tightened, resulting in a leak-proof, self-aligning seal. Style 380 (short) and 400 (long) Sleeve
Couplings consist of sleeve, gaskets, end caps, bolt and nuts. All metal parts are painted for
improved resistance to atmospheric corrosion. Replacement parts are also available.

Repair Clamps
Style 2450 Norris “Jiffy” Repair Clamps are designed for quick and easy repair of blowouts, splits and other leaks in all types of pipe and
tubing. The stainless steel band with diamond grid Buna N lining conforms to pipe irregularities and provides a positive seal without
collapsing the pipe. Lug castings are made from malleable iron, contoured for precision fit and coated for corrosion resistance. One lug
has an open slot for fast, easy installation and the others have precision square openings to secure the bolts while tightening. Elongated
squares under the bolt heads mate with lug openings to assure proper closure. Carbon steel bolts, nuts and washers are standard and
stainless steel fasteners are available on special order.
